 When Carrie's psychiatrist first suggested hospitalizing her for depression, she thought it would embarrass her family and herself. I was scared that my family would think I didn't fit into their way of life anymore. But now she talks openly about her illness. My biggest role is to create awareness and to help people if someone's struggling with it, to help them realize that they can move forward. Education and awareness can change attitudes.
